Congrats to Lisa and all the other expectant mummies.

I'm due end of Sept with number 5. We're delighted; extended family not so much

I'm so very sorry, Lisa. I was so very excited for you and your family. You are in my prayers.

I, myself, just recently found out that I am expecting . This is very much a joyous surprise! ... I'm feeling well, but my husband's stomach is a bit green . He was so very content with our three little girls and wasn't very open to the idea of having more. So we have been diligently mindful each month on his behalf. But I prayed mightily, and recently finished a novena for his openess to life ... and now lookie here.    This is very much God's work. I know my cycle, and we are mindful. The numbers don't add up, and it doesn't make sense (to him), but I know it's all my fault for praying . ( ... joking ...). This is a lot to internalize for him. He's ok. There was a hug and a smile on his face, but I know inside that he has mixed feelings. I pray that he has peace in his heart ... which I know he will. He's such a good Daddy and our family is overjoyed for us! God is good.

ETA: I think I'm due in early December, by my own estimations

Oh, Chris--that is such wonderful news. Praying for you and your husband, and your newest little blessing.

And I'm very sorry, Lisa. You will be in my prayers as well.

... quietly and gingerly putting my name back up here after losing my baby in April ... ever more guarded this time. But I know, I KNOW that we are in God's hands. He has given us two babies within a month's time, and I'm pretty sure that He's the only one who wasn't surprised. I trust Him, with all my heart and soul.

I also am expecting, I have an ultrasound in 9 days to determine the due date. Somewhere between the end of November and the first part of January is my best guess.

We are expecting our third in Mid-January (or knowing how things go for me probably LATE January LOL).

We are keeping this a secret from those in real life, but wanted to post here because I could really use the prayers...my last pregnancy was a doozy! But we are VERY excited! We are so ready for a new baby!!!
